Ghostwriter

Blocked in life, in writing, in love.

Ghostwriter

Ghostwriter, oh my soul

Tomorrow is again

The masquerade

The show-n-tell

To keep the body on

But once I had

A dream to share

And things for us to do

Here is sit alone again

Just waiting to hear from you.

Ghostwriter, oh my soul

The certainty is gone

I want to feel

I try to write

My hand is not so strong

But once I had

A poem in hand

Why now, my mind, this coup?

Here I sit alone again

Just waiting to hear from you.

[John the Baptist]

The muse can be difficult, sometimes downright bitchy. But relaxed patience will bring her back. In the end, she cannot stand to be ignored.
